Does an app or setting existing that will enable shortcuts in the keyword. For example there are some longer items that I always seem to be typing in, my email address for one. I'd like to find a quicker way of inputting this if possible. Any ideas?

If you get Smart keyboard pro is has custom autotext like the blackberry. For example if you can have u = you or wth = what the heck and so on. It is the best keyboard out there and there is an unlimited number of shortcuts that can be inputed
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] contagous:
Hey

Was wondering it if it possible to edit the original camcorder app to record in a different format something like .mp4 with better audio?

Reason I ask, is when I've used 3rd part voice recorder app's the sound is better, so it must be possible to get good sound.

If the above isn't possible would it be at all possible to write a new camcorder app that records in the .mp4 format with higher audio quality?

This would be a huge app, so i'm not expecting anything, but just wondered if it is at all possible.

I'm not a developer so I don't know.

Thanks for any info, hoe this is the right section, figured is developer stuff more then app based.

I've been hearing around the forums about a codec fix in build.prop, you might want to do a search for that, could possibly be what your looking for.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] contagous:
Sorry what exactly do you mean? build.prop?

I'm not a dev or anything, Just wondered if a Dev on this forums would know anything about it.

1 reply in 100 views, prob means not many people care tho hehe.

Hopefully I'll get some more replies soon giving some info :)

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tdiman:
I'm interested in this as well. My usage scenario is to record video with the camcorder and use twonkyserver to stream it directly from my phone to my LG TV, which supports mp4 and mkv containers, but not 3gp.

Can a dev possibly do some tweaking on the Samsung keyboard? I'd really love an option for turn vibrate on and off, after hitting a number and then space going back to the letters part of the keyboard. Any other suggestions? Thanks guys.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] down8:
I'm pretty sure you can turn off the haptic feedback already.

[Vibrant Themes and Apps] priide:
They only way to do it turns off the touch sensitive buttons on the bottom too which stinks.

I'm with you! I love my hepatic feedback on buttons, but hate vibrate while typing

I am running on the stock 2.2 build frf91 and I want to change the kernel to improve battery life. I haven't had my nexus for very long so I don't know much about this kind of stuff (just switched from hero) I want to switch to the .34 undervolted kernel ... can someone please help me to do this. I am currently only getting about 6 to 6 and a half hours of use per full charge on light to moderate usage so better battery life is needed badly... thank you guys :)

Yeah, the blacks are incredible on this screen. It's amazing how high-quality the SAMOLED is. It really excites me to see what other devices get SAMOLED panels in the next few years.

Can't wait until they drop in price for use on laptops -- not to mention HDTVs.

I've never used an AMOLED in the sun (just used the HTC Incredible indoors). Does anyone know the biggest differences between the two types of screens? SAMOLED eats less power than AMOLED, and has a higher contrast ratio, right? What else is there, really?
[Vibrant General] boodies:
yeah, currently my desktop consist of a purely black screen. I have no icons whatsoever. Along with LauncherPro with it's 3d vertical scrolling, it is so friggin classy!!! AWESOME!@!@#$
[Vibrant General] boodies:
LOVE SAMOLED...

SAM's OLED ^_^
[Vibrant General] gordon.mott:
It really is amazing....
[Vibrant General] Qverse:
Really

I am still blown away Man this screen is HOT...Ok no front cam, no flash, Ok just a bit small and the Evo and the droid x ...But WOW..It took me 4mins to root ...and Bang bang tether..

Coming from the G1...and I have 2.2 running with all the bells and whisles..This mature sex thing..has me in love...
[Vibrant General] speedysilwady:
lol thats pretty good for the battery on this phone cuz the screen takes up 0 energy to produce black pixels! thanks for the idea! ima do that with mine when it comes in next week!
[Vibrant General] iunlock:
The SAMOLED is absolutely fantastic.

80% less reflective

20% better battery life

20% brighter

And just how freakin' cool is the AMOLED screens?

[Vibrant General] kusotare:
another thing about the black for you battery-life junkies: having a completely black background has been shown to save up to 1.5% battery life per hour with the screen on. thats a lot over the course of a day.
[Vibrant General] boodies:
very true. as I can contest to it. I've been using this all black setup today along with 0 percent brightness, [because I can see everything clear even with 0%! ] from around 9:30ish, i've been on and off on the phone, [um.. because i just got it and I can't get over it haha] Serioulsy, I played games, browsed, called, market just played around. When it was about 10pm ish, the phone still had 20% left. Awesome :)
[Vibrant General] boodies:
LOL, the Korean AMOLED song. NICE!
[Vibrant Accessories] landale:
So I wonder if companies might start producing replacement battery covers for the Vibrant and Galaxy S? It seems that since the Vibrant is exactly the same size as the international Galaxy S they would be compatible if they existed. Given a major complaint about the phone is the cheap plastic feeling you'd think there would be a nice market for more premium battery covers. Sure one could just put on a case but for those who like their phone as slim as possible this might be a good option. Hopefully if enough people agree here some company will see there is demand and produce them.
[Vibrant Accessories] larryccf:
check the link to the samsung accessories page in a thread a few posts down - samsung offers them for quite a few of the earlier high end models, including ones for extended life 2400 mAh batteries, so there's no reason they won't for the Vibrant or i9000

[EVO 4G General] Brando8912:
I flashed using Simple root method then installed the SU-2.1-e-unsecure-signed rom and wanted to go back to stock because it was not working right.

I used the RUU and would give me a USB error. I followed another post that said dont unplug the phone just run the RUU again and it will work. I did this then got another error. I tried to reset and it would stall on the white screen. I went into hboot and tried to flash the damage control rom and now its stuck in boot loop.

I have cleared the cache and tried to reinstall the rom but to no avail. Any help would be appreciated.

Can some one please help me my phone will create a nandroid but wen I go to restore it I get an error no matter wat I do
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danaff37:
Two things usually cause this, either the folder is renamed and has a space in the name, or you are low on battery and need to charge your phone (greater than 50% is best)
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abcdfv:
Also have a close to full SDCard will cause it.

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bycoo222:
well it restored this time but after 3 hours on the htc screen i pulled the battery
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lunchbox88:
I have this same issue.

I just created a new backup (97% battery, over 1/2 of SD card mem free). Here's a list of the files that it created:

boot.img

misc.img

recovery.img

system.img

When I look at one of the 2 backups that will actually restore, it shows these files:

boot.img

cache.img

data.img

misc.img

nandroid.md5

recovery.img

system.img

Any idea why this is happening?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lunchbox88:

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bcarter2000:
What recovery are you running?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lunchbox88:
I'm running 1.5.2
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unCoRrUpTeD:
You might want to try and use a newer version of recovery. There is 1.6.2 and also darch has one that he OC'd.

I had this problem before when I copied my sdcard to my computer and reformatted my card to fat32 only. When I tried to restore a backup it was trying to write files to the sdcard but there was not an ext file system on it so it would abandon the process.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bycoo222:
did you repartition your sd and it worked?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lunchbox88:
I flashed 1.6.2, and I still can't get a good backup.

The upside is I still have one that works, the downside is that it's from 6/1.

I would greatly appreciate any thoughts on other things to try.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sdotcarlisle:
did you try a nand+ext backup? mine wouldnt work either then tried that and works fine.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lunchbox88:
Yeah, I've tried that.

nand+ext backup gives me the error "ERROR : Run 'nandroid-mobile.sh' via adb!"

My battery is full, and my SD card has 2.7 GB of 4 GB free.

Running just the nand backup gives me the files:

boot.img

nand+ext gives me:

boot.img

data.img

system.img

Those must be created before the error.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sdotcarlisle:
craziness. i'm using unofficial 1.7 found here. http://darchroms.pocketdevelopers.com/recoveries/RA-Darchstar.img

try it out.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lunchbox88:
OK, I just tried running the backup from adb, and here's my results:

It said

Dumping boot to /sdcard/.../boot.img...done

Dumping recovery to /sdcard/../recovery.img...done

Dumping misc to /sdcard/.../misc.img...done

Dumping system to /sdcard/.../system.img...done

Dumping data to /sdcard/.../data.img...done

Dumping cache to /sdcard/.../cache.img...done

generating md5sum file...md5sum: can't open '*img': No such file or directory

done

Now, in browsing the folder on my the SD card, it lists the boot.img file, the recovery.img file, and the misc.img file, but not the system, data, or cache files, and no md5sum file.

Any ideas?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lunchbox88:
I tried reflashing 1.6.2, and then I tried a backup. It's been "backing up" for the past 30 minutes. I don't remember it taking this long before, but I'm going to give it a few more minutes before I pull the battery.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lunchbox88:
OK. So, it's something weird with my SD Card. I found the original 2GB card that came with the phone, and tried a backup. It seems to have worked. Weird that it USED to work with my 4GB card.

Oh well. At least I now have a more current backup. I guess I'll just use this 2GB card to hold backups.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bycoo222:

Well for some reason idk =/ exe's and HaRET isnt opening anymore please help it keeps telling me The file'haret cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificae, or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem persist, try reinstalling or restoring the file.

idk why its doing this it worked before but all of a sudden it stopped working what should i do? ive tried msigner but still nothing please help

-alex
[HD2 General] sumflipnol:
Welcome to the forums!

The most logical thing I would do is to delete all of the Android files you have (including HaRET), soft-reset, then put back all of those files on your SD-card.

Or, if you have Total Commander, try launching HaRET with that. I remember when I used to use Android on my TP2, I sometimes had to go through Total Commander to launch HaRET.

Alright thanks! Sumflipnol! =D i'll try that and also thanks! this forums is amazing ive always been looking through and i decided to join!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cyanobacteria:
I dropped my phone in grape juice a long time ago, but now it seems to work again. Sort of. The only problem is that I can't switch from portrait to landscape, or vice versa, the phone is always stuck in landscape. So when I go through the setup, I sign in to my google account, and it asks me to slide the keyboard back in to complete setup. I can't get past this step because when I do, it still stays in landscape.

Any help? Is there any way I can just skip the initial setup?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ffff00:
What rom are you running?

If you're rooted, then make sure your build.prop says

"ro.setupwizard.mode=OPTIONAL"

and then you'll be able to press skip during the setup and you can log-in via market.

[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Anartic:
Okay, so some guy that my co-workers know brought in a bag of cellphone chargers and cellphone batteries. There are 3 batteries that fit perfectly in the MyTouch slide, they're htc branded and I'm wondering if they'll be compatible with the MyTouch. I don't exactly know what to look for to tell if they are or aren't compatible.

Whatever you guys need to know that's on the batteries, just tell me and I'll post it.

Two of the batteries are red, so I'm assuming it's from the Droid Incredible and th third battery may be from an older htc phone because the battery says "htc innovation" whereas the red ones say just "htc" and the MyTouch's is also just "htc"

The 3 batteries are all 1500 mAh 5.55Whr Model: RHOD160

The MyTouch's battery is 1300 MAh 4.81Whr Model: BB00100

So from the information I gave you guys, tell me if it is compatible please :D

I've got this battery too. Bought it on eBay advertised as a Touch Pro 2 battery. I used it for a little until I realized it's too "thick" for the shallow battery space in the Slide. A few hours of charging that battery in my phone and my battery door seemed to warp a little. From that point on, if I used the stock battery, the door would squeak and creak. I don't use the TP2 battery anymore.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Anartic:
Yeah, the batteries are a bit too big, but by a very little amount. I probably won't use the batteries then since I don't really want my batter door turning out like yours :p. I guess I'm gonna have to go back to conditioning the stock battery again.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thegreatcity:
Ok? Your point is?
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daewond3r:
Yeah, it's not worth it. I conditioned my stock battery pretty well (completely dead, charged til light turned green, then 2 additional hours, 5 times) and it's getting awesome life. A full day of texting, calls, web browsing, and an hour or two of Pandora at work, with life to spare, no problem.

[EVO 4G Accessories] Impulses:
I'm loving my MEElectronics M9P, 'specially since I got 'em for like $22 during a special (and in black, which seems to be out of stock everywhere now)... They're usually around $30-ish and they compare very favorably to many $50 IEMs w/mic like the NuForce NE-7M and the Maximo iP-HS5. There's a million threads about this kinda stuff over at HeadFi.org, but there seems to be a strong consensus on the MEElec M9P being one of the better values out there. The Apple ADDIEM (dual driver IEM) are pretty decent too if you can find 'em on Ebay for under $30 and you don't mind the look.

For reference, I had a pair of Sennheiser CX300 IEMs and JVC HA-FX34 before these MEElec and they easily overshadow either of those. All of the ones I've mentioned are IEMs (which go deeper in the ear and isolate more than regular earbuds). I'm not sure if that's what you were after or you wanted straight up earbuds, hope it helps either way.
[EVO 4G Accessories] rasterX:
I've been pretty happy with a set of "Ultimate Ears SuperFi 5vi" earphones I picked up when I got the EVO. Decent bass for a single-driver earphone, though I recommend using the Comply tips (2 pairs are included) instead of the standard silicone ones. Some cable noise, but that's pretty much eliminated if you wear them over the ear. The mic is located on the right earphone lead and placed close to the mouth. The single pause/play button (lower, on the central lead) will start and stop the music player in Android (even when the app is backgrounded, which is nice, though I guess all headphones probably do this). It also hangs up a voice call. The price for these dropped a lot recently, you should be able to find it at online vendors selling for less than a hundred bucks.
[EVO 4G Accessories] Impulses:
Yeah, that's the same way the button on my MEElectronics M9P works (or even the play button on the remote of my Kensington LiquidAUX Bluetooth car kit). Cord noise is one thing that shocked me about the M9P, there's absolutely none, they've got an amazing cord. I think it's double wrapped or something (you can see a black cord inside the translucent outer layer)... They're an amazing bang for the buck, even at $30+.

You could buy HTC EVO OEM headset with remote controller either from HTC site or from ebay. I ordered one from ebay from one US seller for $15 shipped. Search for HTC EVO 4G 9292 Stereo Headset w/ Remote Controller.

They are stocked on HTC site for 29.99 + shipping. It appears that the mic has noise cancellation. You can use remote controller to fw, rw, pause, etc.
